H1 bridge transfer RFE, Initial extension approved. Can I file one more regular H1 transfer


Recommended Posts

Company A filed an extension on April 10th 2020 (i94 expiry Apr 30th).

Company B filed a bridge petition for H1 transfer July 20th. (Bridge since i94 expired)

Company A extension petition approved on July 25th.

Company B H1 transfer (bridge) has got RFE on Aug 3

Question : Can a new Company C apply regular H1 transfer now since my Company A extension has been approved and I have an valid i94 ? Or would this one as well fall under the bridge category since Company B’s bridge transfer is pending in RFE? Kindly clarify

I've similar situation. I was in US for 10 years with my Current_Employer_A and currently stuck in India for all these visa bans. I've an approved H1B Visa(cap exempted) from New_Employer_B which is much smaller in size compared to my Current_Employer_A. Since I'm not able to get my visa stamped, my New_Employer_B wants me to join them in India until I travel back to USA. I'm not fully comfortable with that idea, since I had accepted the offer for US.

1. Can my Current_Employer_A still file a Cap Exempted H1B Visa for me? If yes, will the outcome/decision of this petition impact my already approved H1B petition from my New_Employer_B?

2. Is there any better option?

Thanks & Good Luck
